If you don't have a traditional paella pan, a large shallow frying pan will do.

Instructions to make Paella - Valencia Style:

Now you do not stir again.
  3. Add the warm chicken broth by using a ladle until the rice is covered in the pan. Do not dump the broth in as you want to keep the evenness of the rice on the bottom of the pan.
